The Way of the Master

by Kirk Cameron and Ray Comfort

This book is available from Living Waters, a Christian Answers Team Member.

How to share your faith simply, effectively, biblically… the way Jesus did

The material in this book has been revised and considerably expanded from Ray’s earlier book: Revival’s Golden Key: Unlocking the Door to Revival

“I have over 1,000 books on evangelism, soul-winning, and revival in my personal library, and none of them are worthy to be compared to this book.” —R.W. Jones, Word of Truth Ministries

Do you shy away from sharing the true gospel message with others, unsure of what to say, afraid of rejection and ridicule?

That’s not what Jesus did.

Jesus was not afraid to shake people up. He spoke openly of their sinful nature and the righteousness of God. He forced people to confront their sin head-on, and He brought them face-to-face with their need for salvation—because He loved them.

Who do you know who isn’t saved? If they died tonight, where would they spend eternity? Do you care? If so, what are yo doing to help them?

The Way of the Master will put a great tool into your hand and will teach you how to share the message of the gospel simply, biblically, and without fear—the way Jesus did! you will become equipped to confidently lead anyone—friend, family member, coworker, neighbor, or stranger on the street—to a clear understanding of repentance and what it means to be a true and active follower of Jesus Christ.

Do you think you already know how to share the gospel effectively?

According to numerous reports, all is not well in the contemporary Church. There are millions who insinuate that they belong to Jesus Christ, but whose lives dont match their claims. Equally disheartening are results of Americas evangelism efforts. Alarm bells should go off when we see statistics like this:

• In one year a major U.S. denomination claimed to have obtained 294,784 decisions for Christ. Unfortunately, they could find only 14,337 in fellowship.
• A mass crusade reported 18,000 decisions, yet tragically, 94 percent failed to ever become incorporated into a local church.
• Less than five percent of those who responded to an altar call during a public crusade are living a Christian life one year later.

Here is the dilemma: Up to 95 percent of the evangelistic crop is failing, both in mass crusades and in local churches. It withers and dies as soon as the sunlight of tribulation, persecution, and temptation shines on it. And those who do occupy our churches often fail to grow into vibrant witnesses for Jesus Christ.

This tragic problem has come about simply because we have lost the precious key to revival. This book will put the key in your hand!

This book is eloquent and eye-opening. You may find yourself reading it more than once. When you're done, pass it on to a friend or member of your church staff.

Although prayer is without question a great key to revival, this book is not about prayer. It’s about a key that much of the Church doesn’t even know exists.
